Portrait of George Fox (1624 - 1691), Founder of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, aged thirty; he looks upwards, his hands raised in devotion, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a cape. In 1653 Fox headed to London, but he was arrested on the way. In March 1654 (the year Honthorst is supposed to have painted the portrait from which this print is engraved) he was given an audience with Oliver Cromwell, and 'made a good enough impression for Cromwell to order the release of his guest' (DNB). Fox then spent some time preaching in the capital before leaving. After Gerard van Honthorst (1590 - 1656).

James Graham (1612-1650), soldier. The Royalist general 'of most resolute and undaunted spirit'. Montrose actually began his military career fighting against Charles I. In 1640 he led the Scottish Covenanting armies across the Tweed and occupied the Northeast of England. At the onset of the Civil War, he changed allegiance and raised a Royalist army in Scotland. In 1644-5 he was eventually forced to join Charles II in exile. Five years later, a final attempt to defeat the Covenanters ended in his capture and execution. According to the NPG 'probably after Gerrit van Honthorst'.
